An Overview of the European Spallation Source | |
|
||
| ESS, the European Spallation Source, will be a major user facility at which researchers from academia and industry will investigate scientific questions using neutron beams. ESS will be a slow neutron source of unparalleled power and scientific performance. The ESS is divided in three main areas: accelerator, target and experiments. The accelerator creates protons at the ion source, accelerates them to an appropriate energy and steers them to a solid, rotating tungsten target. The target converts the high energy proton beam into low-energy neutron beams via the spallation process with the greatest possible efficiency. The neutrons will be delivered to a suite of research instruments, each devised to extract different kinds of information from the samples studied. ESS will reach its full design specifications in 2025, with a suite of 22 research instruments. | ||
